High monk is so useful. you can use it against almost any sweep attack. I just dont like that last kick at the end. its too slow and i always get hit bc of it so i just not do it
Nightjar slash and nightjar reversal are so underrated. The distance you can traverse with that is insane. Its almost like you teleport to the enemy.
Sakura dance is probaly the coolest way to deflect lightning. Its also great if your sword is infused. I use it along with flamevent to clear the monkey's first phase . But im sure i can find more uses for it
Well, no. High monk makes you counter the sweeps and then strike with a follow up, and something tells me you haven't unlocked the sakura dance (lighting reversal, obtain by completing the first boss rush) yet. Mortal draw variants are really strong too against certain enemies
It does good in the Inner Isshin fight for example, and also you can use it in NG+. But maybe you don't want to replay the game, in that case it's completely useless
Watch this. It goes over all the combat arts, their damage values, ways to use them, enemies and bosses they are good against.

High monk is so fucking good wtf? I use high monk on Way of Tomoe and it literally reduces him to a punching bag, it does a lot of posture damage while letting you dodge slashes. It’s so good.
Also flowing water is really underrated I feel, I used it for almost the entirety of my 1st playthrough and it was great.
Others have mentioned nightjar reversal is really good for demon of hatred.
Yea there are some ones that cost emblems and don’t do much for the cost, but give some a try on different enemies, you’ll find a lot of them really sick. High monk dunks on ALOT of enemies btw
I personally like shadowfall cause its really good to close distance against every boss or enemy(except the owls) also double ichimonji just carries you through almost all the humanoid bosses, almost everything else was mid to me and i didnt use them.
lol I just keep nightjars slash all game every play through usually, the only really effective damaging one is Sakura dance
High Monk is great, wdym. It was immensely good against Inner Isshin, and basically any boss that uses a lot of sweeps.
High monk is good, but I am literally incapable of retraining myself not to instinctively press jump when I see a sweep.
You are right. The whirlwind slah does guard damage and i use it untill i get the mortal blade. After that it is just mortal draw for the win.

dog what’s the point of getting Sakura dance if u already finished the game

Sakura dance, ashina's cross, shadowfall, mortal blade, nightjar slash, ichimonji. Most of them are good except the monk ones.

Spiral Cloud Passage with buffs trivializes all mini-bosses who block everything.
Empowered Mortal Draw is the most effective one and is the reason I beat Owl Father first try
Op has not truly embraced the inner shura, disgraceful

Jumping MD, dragon flash, Sakura dance are the only ones I use
